Its politics inside Ferrari....they want FA to be happy so the Spanish banking SAntander can stay with the Scuderia...etc etc...

but they couldn't do it in a more subtle way and fail to admit and talks to the media and public like they're stupid pisses people off....and turns out to be a major PR nightmare again.....

its not F1 season without some controversy...

Unfortunately you are right. It's always politics when big money is involved. It's just very frustrating to watch. I guess another way to look at it is that the other teams could have performed better and prevented the entire issue by simply beating the Ferrari's.
